No! Usage of ‘and’ more than once in a sentence is poor English. Correct usage is to use commas between the examples (if more than two), with the last example joined with the use of ‘and’.
What does more than once means?
More than once doesn’t mean “many times.” It means exactly what it says – more than one time. The implication is that the writer knows the person has skipped class two or more times but can’t be specific. I guess it could mean “repeatedly,” but even that is a bit of a stretch since it can mean simply “twice.”

Can you have two and in a sentence?
You certainly can use “and” more than once in a sentence, but in this case I would consider rewording it somehow instead. I would definitely not use an ampersand.
